Performing the archive

Vol.40,No.1(2019)

Abstract
Departing from Coco Fusco's performance entitled "Words May Not Be Found" (Berlin, 2017), as well as taking into consideration Krauss's concept of expanded field and Rebbeca Schneider's critique of the notion of immediacy of performance, this text discusses "the documentation" of performance through video. This is approached as the medium that expands the field of performance into the future and into an "alive" dimension of the archive through theater and video.
